Keep clicking Continue through all the prompts. The options you want selected as you go through the prompts are the following:

You will get to a point where you will need to set your time zone. It will be a big map of the world that should automatically detect your location. Type in a computer name and pick a username and password. I select the “Log in automatically” option.
When installation is complete, click “Restart Now.”
